Otto is my favorite restaurant in the world in terms of overall experience, winning by a hair, with its most attentive service, intimate venue and celestial food. It might lose by a hair to Single Thread Farm in the food department. The latter is the only one in world restaurant history that won Michelin two stars in its first year and 3 stars before the second year was up. It beats Otto by a hair only for its more diverse selection of dishes, with the owner/chef having trained and worked years
attentive service, intimate venue and celestial food. It might lose by a hair to Single Thread Farm in the food
department. The latter is the only one in world restaurant history that won Michelin two stars in its first year and
3 stars before the second year was up. It beats Otto by a hair only for its more diverse selection of dishes, with the owner/chef having trained and worked years in some of the best restaurants in the world, including Fat Duck and
Michel Bras having learned Japanese cooking in Hokkaido under a 3-starred French chef and then in UK,
assimilating the best of different culinary styles.
So if you are one that wants 16 course meal with many different ethnic blessings, you may go for Single Thread, If
you are not merely impress with variety alone, but wants simply the best overall dining experience, then you may
vote for Otto. I love food, but at the end of the day, the overall experience is most treasured, that’s why Otto
is my overall #1.
I put my precious dollars where my mouth is. I live in Carmel, blessed with dining at many amazing restaurants in
Northern California, including the wine country, so Otto has some fierce competition indeed and to be numero ono
in many book is no small feat indeed. I visit Hong Kong twice a year, spending an average three weeks each time
and I dine at Otto at least twice on each of my visit, and that is in the face of the many tempting choices locally.
Kudos to the wonderful, unrivaled team both in the back and the front of the house!
